As promised

the floor:



As I said yesterday, it's gorgeous and it has a lot of character. I saw a modern Turkish rug for the living room that's going to look beautiful on it, I'm working on saving the $$ for it now.

Here's an action shot of Hub imparting some of his flooring wisdom on Little Big Man. We were just finishing off the last couple of boards on Monday night when Hub called him over and started telling him the ins and outs of making sure everything was all snugged up before nailing it off. It's funny how interested LBM gets when he's learning something rather than just being a gopher.

Then he decided that we all needed to watch Ferris Bueller's Day Off. I loved that movie when it came out and I still love it. The best part was listening to Little Big Man guffaw at the parts he thought were funny.

Up next in the DVD player? Girl with a Pearl Earring and Ali. I finished the pearl earring book a few weeks ago - beautifully written and very pleasurable to read. Plus, you know, it has Colin Firth in it. Who can resist?

Ali will be feeding my newly minted obsession with Will Smith. I'll let you know how they are.

Just watched Girl With a Pearl Earring today ! Every scene was like a painting - one of the most visualy beautiful films I've ever seen.
Love your sexy new floor. ;-]
